Elenor walked out of her room. Rosina wore a long sleeve white blouse which had strings that were in a corset pattern before tied into a bow.

Overlaying the blouse was her dark blue checkered styled pinafore with a belt in the same style as the dress wrapped around her waist. Her pink wavy hair was tied into a low ponytail with a black bow attached to it.

"Where's Isabella?" she asked Rosina once she noticed their other friend was missing.

"Still getting dressed." Rosina replied.

The two then headed to Isabella's room and not waiting long, she stepped out of her room all dressed up. As usual, she was dressed up in a more dramatic and eye-catching.

She wore an off shoulder blue dress with silk lace gloves up to her elbows. Her hair was curled and she had a matching set of sapphire necklace and earrings.

Elenor could only let out an airy chuckle while Rosina stared with admiration.

Finally they left the west building that they had been staying in and headed to the main building where the princess was waiting at. They weren't the only ones that were heading there. Her brother too joined them once he saw them walking out of the building.

"Let's go together." Richard smiled.

Before Elenor could answer, Isabella beat her to it, "It is an honour to be able to walk with you sir Richard!!"

Richard paused before sending her a smile, "How long has it been since I've last walked with you Lady Isabella? A few years right?"

Isabella was caught off guard by his smile causing her to freeze up, unable to say a word. He looked at her with a concerned look but Elenor shook her head and dragged Isabella away with her.

"Don't worry brother, she's thinking about something so do forgive her for not responding to you."

"Ah it's alright."

Alec walked beside Elenor closer but she glared at him before mouthing out the words,

"My brother will kill you."

Slightly annoyed by the circumstances, he withdrew and walked behind her instead. They finally reached the main building where the princess was waiting at. They head inside, following a servant who guided them through the enormous building.

When they reached a door, it was opened for them which led them into a large indoor garden that could fit tons of people.

"Whoa..! It's huge!" Rosina exclaimed, looking around.

Isabella, who was brought back out of her trance, helped Rosina close her jaw, not wanting any bugs to fly into her mouth.

They weren't the only ones inside as well. Most if not all the people that were staying in the west building with them were already inside. Fortunately when they arrived, her highness hadn't arrived yet.

"Let's look around." Elenor suggested.

They walked around the garden, admiring each and every kind of flowers planted. As the place was large, without knowing all of them had separated, looking around the areas of the garden they were interested in.

"This place is truly big." Elenor mumbled to herself, looking upwards.

The ceiling was a dome shaped and had a large fan spinning, keeping everyone cool. She stared off into a distance before she was suddenly pulled away. Startled, she threw a punch at the person who had pulled her.

"Milady, I don't think punching someone you love in the face is nice." Alec commented, dodging her fast punch.

Seeing that it was Alec who had pulled her, she was relieved, "Being pulled out of nowhere is a valid reason to punch that person."

Alec clicked his tongue before leaning dangerously close to her. In panic, she looked left and right, pushing him away.

"What if people see us!?"

"This place is hidden. Nobody can see us." he answered, leaning close once more.

"Pervert!" she glared.

"Hm? But I'm only like this to you." he smirked, caressing the back of her neck.

Her eyes were shut tight, waiting for what was coming. After a while, she felt no sensation on her lips causing her to open her eyes. Alec had a light smile on his face, watching her.

Embarrassed, she punched him in the stomach. "I hate you."

She wanted to turn away but Alec grabbed her chin and kissed her. She responded back to his kiss, crumpling up the fabric of his coat in her hands. He licked her lips, wanting her consent. Getting no response from her made him raise an eyebrow. He then gently bit on her bottom lip, licking it more.

Elenor broke the kiss and pushed him away. She covered her mouth and glared at him as her cheeks began red.

"What's wrong?" Alec asked although he knew.

"Like I said, pervert." she glared at him but it deflated and held no anger whatsoever.

"Your reactions are cute."

Alec chuckled, leaning close to her ear, "Don't show them to anyone else. Only I can see them." he whispered before moving back to his original position.

"You are truly a pervert."

Hurriedly she ran off, returning to where everyone was gathered at. She soon found her brother and her friends so she returned back to their side quietly. Alec did the same not long after, his expression was normal as if he hadn't just nearly made out with her.

Then a butler walked in and announced in a loud voice which echoed through the indoor garden, "Her highness, Princess Hera Sela Whitlock has arrived!"

Everyone made way and bowed as loud heels clacked against the pavement. It was eerily silent that a knife could cut through it. The air felt suffocating to Elenor.

'As expected, someone from royalty only has this type of aura..' she thought to herself.

"Raise your heads." Hera ordered.

Everyone obeyed and returned to their original stance. Her eyes swept through the crowd before a smile blossomed on her face.

"Thank you all for coming at such a late notice. Everything here has been prepared for you so please do enjoy your time here." she spoke before walking over to her own table.

The lively atmosphere before this returned back and everyone did their own things. Some went to talk and introduce themselves to the princess so although did respond, had a bored look on her face.

Elenor couldn't help but gaze over at the princess. When their gazes met, Elenor felt as if something had struck her from the back. She broke the eye contact and lightly stumbled on her feet.

"Are you okay milady?" Alec softly asked, protecting her from falling.

"Y-yeah...just a headache." she replied to him, a frown forming between her brows.

The feeling she had been having for a long time which grew worse after hearing the word 'Vaidia', she finally understood it. She had forgotten another crucial part.

Princess Hera Sela Whitlock. The only daughter of his majesty. She had long curly white hair, celeste blue eyes and a mole under her left eye. Her skin was as white as snow and her beauty was far better than most ladies.

She was another antagonist that would do anything to get what she wants. Even if it meant blackmailing, kidnapping, killing and so on. She had no remorse and only cared for herself. She was like Elenor. The two had something in common.

They both loved pretty things.

When she met Lloyd when he came to Vaidia, she was entranced by how pretty he looked. Immediately, she knew she had to get him. Make him hers.

After that... Elenor didn't know.

This was the next book she was planning on writing before she became Elenor. The only details she remembered was that part and another thing.

If the previous Elenor and Hera were almost alike, Hera was far worse in what she had done. Elenor only wanted Lloyd but Hera, she wanted everything. Anything that was pretty? She would take it.

She had many pretty, beautiful men kept in her building. She collected them as if they were items to be collected. It was like a hobby of hers. If she was bored of their beauty, they either get killed off or they get thrown into her own dungeon below her building where she would continuously torture them for fun until they die.

Those who were lucky to have never made her tired of their faces would be able to live but it was at best like a slave's life. They would have to kiss her feet and do whatever she says in order to see the next day.

Elenor couldn't think of anything else. She only wrote the starting which was barely half a chapter and that part of the story had already passed. She hadn't planned the next and upcoming future plots as well. All she knew was that Hera's sins were far greater than the previous Elenor's could ever be.

"Milady?" Alec called out to her, bringing her back from her thoughts.

"Yes?"

"You didn't answer me when I called you the other two times. Are you sure you're okay?" Alec asked, massaging the frown that was still on her face.

Elenor nodded and forced a smile, trying her best not to show her anxiety, "Yes I'm alright. Thank you for your concern Alec."

Alec was about to respond to her when Richard and her two friend's face came into view as well,

"Are you sure you're okay? You look quite pale."

"Maybe we should ask to head back early if you're sick."

"Did you catch any allergies from those flowers?"

Hearing their concerns, Elenor chuckled and shook her head, "I'm alright, don't worry."

"You must be Elenor Berry Hester, am I correct?" a voice spoke to her.

She turned around to see Hera walking towards her. She bowed, "Yes your highness."

Hera hummed before glancing at Richard and Alec. "What fine men you have beside you."

Elenor didn't respond to that, continuing to bow. Hera silently scoffed before waving her hand,

"Raise your head."

Elenor raised her head and smiled at Hera. Hera could only hide her frown with a charming smile.

Elenor could see from the corner of her eye that many men who were here were already dumbstruck by her charming beauty.

"Lady Elenor, I would like to say something if I may." Hera politely said with a docile look on her face.

Not wanting to back down, she nodded and shot her the best smile she could muster up at the moment, "Of course your highness."

Hera clasped her hands together and spoke, "I would like to have your butler."
